Leon,
I would trust Yaesu's manual. However, put the pin part
of the plug into the jack on the back of the FT-1000(D)
and confirm the voltages with a digital voltmeter.
The manual gives "band A, Band B, Band C, Band D" --
those are BCD band information. If you simply select
each band and record the voltages you will be able to
confirm which pin is which. BTW, don't forget to ground
the TX enable pin in your interface or the FT-1000(D)
will not transmit.

I too found the same problem, but with a different radio.
I just plugged a 10db pad in ahead of the headphones.
This dropped the hum below where it was a problem, and the
audio amp had enough range to overcome the pad.

I have the 1000MP and have noticed a distinct hum when I, listening in the
monitor, key the mike. This is true with the hand mike or my Heil head set
and is true whether or not the processor is turned on. Then processor does,
however, increase the noise. I believe some of this is pick up of back
ground noise in the shack, but that does not occur with my Yaesu 920, even
with the processor engaged. I have made sure my connections are good and
tight and the radio, as well as all pieces of equipment, are individually
grounded via braid to a cental point and then go out to four 8 foot ground
rods. I just redid all these connections and have checked them with the ohm
meter so I feel confidant that the station is well grounded. I checked the
archives on the site but a search failed to turn up anything like this. I
would be greatful for any input you can offer. Steve, NN4T.

Hi All,
Surely there is some one on the reflector that has taken apart the FNB-17
case.
I thought it was like the FNB-10 case in that the little silver cover
sticker could be removed exposing a plastic "lip" with a slot for prying up.
The case would then come apart.....
What am I doing incorrectly? The FNB-17 has the same little silver
sticker... and the same little plastic "lip"......... But, when I pry, it
doesn't seem to release what holds the case together.
I would appreciate a response from someone who has "been there"... "done

Hi!
I have a FT990 that is refusing to communicate to my PC. I tried two PC, =

luck.
The problem began to show up slowly but now it is steady.
I have checked the sig with my Tek scope and this is what I have seen:
When an update command is sent to the radio, the CAT indicator comes on =
and there is a signal coming out on SO. Traced the sig all the way to =
the comm. port of my PC and the sig is there with the correct levels but =
nothing happens.

I did a update command asking for 1508 bytes (U=3D0) to have time to =
sync on something. The only thing I think is kind of strange is that the =
shortest info element is less that 2.2ms which is the shortest time for =
a baud of 4800.
Ran out of bullets...
Could it be a problem with Q5004 MCU oscillator?

Would anyone have the FoxTango FT newsletters from 1978 and be willing to
send me a copy of page 7806? That would equate to page 2 of the February,

If all to do with rig relating to CPU is functioning, then its clock is
likely to
be okay. And if it were off sufficiently far enough to cause TXD to be
gibberish,
then it should equally have problem deciphering incoming on RXD.
Try comparing input versus output of whatever chip is used for line driver
on TXD
line.

For Sale:
InRad # 2109.1 SSB filter for Yaesu
This filter is 2.1 KHz wide for 8987.5 KHz center frequency, with
a 1.6 shape factor. It will work in an FT-101 ZD, FT-107, FT-707,
FT-901, FT-902, FT-980, and maybe others. This one is new,
never used, complete in its box. $ 80
Yaesu 600 Hz CW filter - Yaesu XF-8.2M-601
This will work in the FT-757, FT-767, FT-102, and maybe others.
Used, but in 100% A-OK condition. $70
Yaesu Mobile Bracket.
This is the bracket for the FT-757 HF xcvr. I think MMB-20 is
the number, and I am sure that it fits other rigs in addition to the
FT-757, such as the FT-767, FT-890, FT-900, and many others.
This particular one does not have a scratch or mark on it; it
appears that it has never been used. $ 25
Power cord for Yaesu FT-757
This is an original Yaesu FT-757 power cord. It has the four pin
Jones plug on it, and will fit many rigs other than the FT-757.
Never used. $ 25
Prices do not include shipping from Florida.
Thanks.

Yes, beware of Yaesu - some radios are DTE, some DCE & you will often
find the serial connector to be of the wrong sex - let's just say that Yaesu
uses D*E. ;^)
Sorry to hear the 990 doesn't use a normal line driver - I've seen them do
some strange things. As the driver is merely a transistor, it'll be hard for
that to muck it up.
One last suggestion - may have been done already - do a complete reset of
the rig.
GL!
